<td>During the training and education of members [of any Jihaad Organisation],
the emphasis should not only be on their spiritual enhancement, but it
should also be on the enhancement of their mental agility and brightness.
<center>
<p><b><i><font color="#000099"><font size=+1>Two Groups:</font></font></i></B></center>

<p>There are certain groups in the Ummah, who put <i>all</i> the emphasis
on spiritual enhancement, they rigorously pursue the sittings of <i>Dhikrullaah</i>
and the <i>Muraaqebah</i>, but sadly their minds become void of the longing
for the greatness of Islaam and the concern for the protection of Muslims.
They consider it as a sin to even talk about the problems facing the Muslims,
and they regard the practical establishment of Islaam as a waste of time...
<p>To them, the slaughtering of the inner <i>shaytaan</i> is vital, but
they regard the slaughtering of the (physical) enemies of Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)</font></i>,
as disdainful. This limited and narrow approach to the Religious teachings
and practices, turns them away from other essential and important Teachings
of Islaam.
<p>As a result of such perceptions and practices, they cut themselves off
from other Islaamic collective responsibilities and they lose the heat
of the passion and enthusiasm for the ascendancy of the Islaamic struggle.
They become disinterested with the world events around them and they neither
strive to remove the oppressive rulers, nor to snatch their freedom from
the hands of the <i>Kuffaar</i>. Eventually they become totally cut off
from the real world, and they become so distant from the actual Commandments
of Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)</font></i> and His <i>Rasool<font color="#000099">(sallallaahu
'alayhi wa sallam)</font></i> that - '<i>Na-oodhubillaah</i>' <font size=-1>(i.e.
'<i>We seek refuge in Allaah</i>')</font> - they declare it to be a sin
to engage in the virtuous Religious activities and deeds of both Jihaad,
and the establishment of Allaah's Supremacy on earth.

<p>On the other end, there exists a section of the Ummah, who possess high
ideals and [a heavy] involvement in the problems they are facing, but for
whom the enhancement of spirituality is anathema. - '<i>Na-oodhubillaah</i>'
- The people of this section are vocal in addressing the Muslim's problems,
well versed in their observance of the political tides and they are fully
rehearsed in the Islaamic revolutionary slogans. But with all these ideals
and philosophies, with all their rhetoric and political awareness, their
souls have never tasted the <i>sweetness</i> of Islaam. Nor do they ever,
in their whole lives, consider for even a second the Islaamic Beliefs and
practices.&nbsp;
<p>All their lip service, their beating of the drums loudly in public for
Islaam, is nothing but a <i>ruse</i> to achieve their own goals, positions
and power. They can devote lengthy periods of time to preparing speeches
against the government, but they cannot move a muscle to attend the five
times daily <i>Salaah</i>.
<p>They visit the Masjid to rally support, but like a thief they disappear
from the scene as soon as the robbery is committed. For them, spiritualism,
ethical and moral practices of Islaam are an alien concept. They have beliefs
in their prowess and abilities, but they have forgotten their Creator,
for whose obedience <i><u>only</u></i>, they were created.
<p>This assessment is not based on exaggeration, but as a matter of fact
the presence of these two distinct groups can be observed in the present
Islaamic societies of the world.
<center>
<p><b><i><font color="#000099"><font size=+1>The Obvious and Beneficial
Solution</font></font></i></B></center>

<p>In order to avoid the defects and shortcomings of these two groups and
their perceptions and practices, the Jihaad organisations ought to prepare
their training and educational structure in such a way, that it would include
not only the spiritual awakening and practices, but also the individual
political and organisational acumen and abilities, and thereafter, it would
be able to produce passionate hearts and intelligent minds both at the
same time. It would be able to enhance the mental capabilities, as well
humility and humbleness before Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)</font></i>.
<p>It would be able to provide effective methods of solving international
problems, and it would also prepare the participants for the greatest sacrifice
in the cause of Islaam. This type of structure would bring forth such a
calibre of people whose words would sink in immediately to the hearts of
their listeners, yet it would be totally free from any vile and disgusting
self-interest and craving for power.
<p>During the process of devising such a training and educational system,
one should bear in mind that proper and beneficial intellect depends totally
upon a virtuous heart and soul, and the virtuous heart and soul depends
upon the wise manifestation of Islaamic beliefs and thoughts.
<p>This balanced approach, this, best of both worlds' system, would produce
a crop of <i>Mujaahideen</i> that would be as brave as tigers during the
day, and who would be as humble as doves during the night, their humility
and devotion to Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)</font></i> being
at its peak during the nights. They would meet the challenges of the enemies
[of Islaam] in every field and would counter any logistic manoeuvre of
the enemy. Yet they will be equipped to beseech and beg for Allaah's Help
and the Victory which Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)</font></i>
has promised them. They would be prepared to chop off the hands of oppression
against Muslims <i>anywhere</i> in the world, and they would perform their
task diligently and to the best of their abilities, yet they will never
forget to raise their hands in prayer to their Creator.
<center>
<p><b><i><font color="#000099"><font size=+1>Refraining from criticism</font></font></i></B></center>

<p>It is natural to be passionate while dealing with the matters relating
to Jihaad. But sometimes it boils over and leads to unfair and unjustified
criticism of colleagues and other departments; such behaviour is counter
productive and [very] harmful to the Jihaad. It is true that in the past
much unfairness was directed towards the people engaged in the propagation,
information and publication of Jihaad. The work of this department was
not as appreciated as it deserves to be. But such an unsuccessful approach
is a thing of the past now.&nbsp;
<p>Now by the grace of Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)</font></i>,
all
those concerted attempts to suppress Jihaad have vaporised into thin air
and a large number of people have come to the fore who understand Jihaad
in all its complexity and who are well capable of presenting Jihaad sincerely,
intelligently, passionately and effectively, so that the Muslim Ummah can
have a better and more well deserved understanding of Jihaad.
<p>The virtues of Jihaad are in such abundance that the need for any competition
between the departments is <i>non</i>-existent.
<p>The speakers and authors on the topic of Jihaad should bear in mind
that Jihaad is the protector of not only the entire aspect of the Deen,
but that it is also the protector of Islaamic etiquette. Jihaad not only
safeguards the fundamental acts of worship, such as the Daily <i>Salaah</i>
or the Hajj, but it also safeguards the <i>Adhab</i>. Jihaad is <u>the</u>
means of establishing the Supremacy of Allaah's Deen, in every corner of
Allaah's earth. Therefore Jihaad ought not to be presented in such a manner
which would belittle the effort of any participant, or insult any section
of Jihaad.
<br>&nbsp;
<center><table BORDER=0 COLS=1 WIDTH="45%" >

<hr WIDTH="100%"></td>

</table></center>

<p><i>Alhamdulillaah</i>, up until now the <i>Mujaahideen</i> have successfully
observed these etiquettes, but as the Movements expand and new personnel
are taken on board, the danger of some encroachment in this area cannot
be overlooked. Portraying the importance of one section against the other,
in such a manner that might create ill-feelings and tensions between the
various sections has caused untold harm to many a large organisation in
the past and caused divisions amongst their leaders.&nbsp;
<p>Therefore, I request of you all - by <i>all</i> means - <i>present Jihaad
to the world as much as possible, at as many places as possible, and present
it as boldly as you can, deliver it so effectively that the darkness of
ignorance disappears. Deliver the case for Jihaad with such irrefutable
arguments and evidences that it will shatter the flimsy clouds of doubts
and misrepresentation. Express the importance of Jihaad in clear, simple
and precise tones, and in such a language that can be understood by everyone.
Present the Jihaad with such passion and commitment that it will send waves
of shudders in the spines of even [the most ardent] anti-Jihaad lobbyists.&nbsp;</i>
<p>But [remember], these speeches, lectures, briefings and articles ought
to be <i>totally</i> free from any insult to any sections of the Deen.
The importance of the Centres of Islaamic Learning, Religious shrines and
places of sanctity ought not to be affected. The value of the Revered Sunnah
and the <i>Nawaafil</i> are not to be reduced, and the active participants
in any branch of the Deen ought not to be devalued.
<p>Here, I feel it necessary to explain that by entering into the arena
of defamation and accusation of any Religious establishment or organisation,
rebounds and inflicts damage and harm upon those who have instigated such
policies. Such evidence abounds in the pages of history.&nbsp;
<p>On the other hand our <i>Salaf us-Saaliheen</i> raised the anthem of
Jihaad at all the far flung corners of the world, because they refrained
from criticism and abuse, so Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)</font></i>
accepted their efforts and bestowed upon them success. Their opponents
were left [with mouths] agape, and they could not find any excuse to point
an accusing finger towards them. Therefore it is extremely important for
the <i>Mujaahideen</i> and the Deen, to understand that the various sections
of the Religion are similar to the various organs of the human body, and
that any damage inflicted upon one organ of the body will inevitably affect
the whole body. Similarly, any damage inflicted upon one section [of the
Ummah] will harm the whole body of the Religion.
<p>We pray to Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)</font></i> that
all the various sections of Islaam - whether it be the Centres of Learning,
or the <i>Masaajid</i>, or the shrines and the places of sanctity<b> </B>-
will accept and adopt the above mentioned practice. If there is full co-operation
amongst these four sections, then - with the Blessings of Allaah <i><font color="#000099">(Ta'aala)
-</font></i> Allaah's Commandments will be established upon the earth,
and the dawn of the <i>Khilaafah</i> might [finally] appear on the horizon;
the glad tidings of which Allaah's final <i>Rasool</i> <i><font color="#000099">(sallallaahu
'alayhi wa sallam)</font></i> has given to us.
<center>
<p><b><i><font color="#000099"><font size=+1>The Importance of the Authenticity
of&nbsp;</font></font></i></B>
<br><b><i><font color="#000099"><font size=+1>Source Materials and References</font></font></i></B></center>

<p>Care should be taken in speeches and writings concerning Jihaad, that
only virtues based on the Holy Qur'aan and the Revered Sunnah are to be
stated. All the references ought to be <i>watertight</i> and authentic.
<p>Jihaad is an obligation whose virtues are abundantly stated in the Holy
Qur'aan and the Revered Sunnah. Yet a thorough and painstaking research
must be carried out before any narration, quotation and event, in order
to refute any false accusations of the non-Muslim, vehement opponent of
Jihaad, and to eliminate any attack upon Jihaad through this door.
<p><i>Alhamdulillaah</i>, as Jihaad is expanding speedily and countless
people are joining the Jihaad daily, a considerable number of these new
participants are not qualified <i>'Ulemaa</i>. In such a case it is important
to keep a watchful eye that their propagation does not contain any weak
or forged <i>Ahadeeth</i>, nor that any myths, or untrue stories, occur
in their statements. In order to eliminate any such false proclamations
by the unlearned, such as; "<i><font color="#000099">...Jihaad has been
practised since the days of Adam ('alayhis salaam).</font></i>"... to prevent
any such terrible incidents ever happening, every effort should be made
to ensure that the meaning and elucidation of the verses of the Holy Qur'aan
are quoted from the most <i><u>reliable</u></i> books of <i>Tafseer</i>
and that the source references of the Revered Sunnah ought to be blameless.
To use any fabricated and untrustworthy references and quotations is an
act of straying from the Right Path of the Deen, which is forbidden. It
runs totally against the aim and objective of Jihaad, which is the protection
of the Religion.
<p><i>Alhamdulillaah</i>, in our experience the <i>Mujaahideen</i> - until
this day - have been immune to such a heinous crime, but they ought to
prepare a preventative plan for any such incidents ever being committed.
In this direction I would suggest that those who are unqualified in the
Learning of the Deen, but who sincerely <i>want</i> to propagate Jihaad,
ought to be given the opportunity to learn by heart.&nbsp;
<p>In addition to the points mentioned in part 1, the <i>Department of
Propagation &amp; Information</i> should take note of the following points
as well:
<blockquote><b>1.</B> Their speeches, statements and writings should not
be in an aggressive style and format.
<p><b>2.</B> They should not interfere in the <i>minor</i> differences
of the Ummah.
<p><b>3.</B> They should provide a comprehensive introduction to all the
Islaamic Movements in the world.
<p><b>4. </B>They should practice moderation both in their praise and their
condemnation of personalities.
<p><b>5.</B> They should avoid such styles and formats, that might turn
a section of the Ummah against the <i>Mujaahideen</i>.
<p><b>6. </B>They should refrain from any criticism and downgrading of
our holy, pious predecessors.
<p><b>7.</B> The introduction of their organisation should be presented
minimally and carefully, while their aims and objectives should be presented
openly and widely.&nbsp;
<p><b>8. </B>They should propagate piety along with the propagation of
Jihaad, for without piety, the Jihaad would be an empty shell.
<p><b>9.</B> Their speeches and writings should be constructed in a simple
and <i>clear</i> format, so that every lay-member of the Muslim community
can understand them.
<p><b>10.</B> The deliberations and findings of our honoured predecessors
should be strictly observed, and one should not engage in any new research
on one's own. As the <i>need</i> for the <i>deed</i> is more important
for the Ummah, and new deliberations and findings are very rarely required.
Any effort in new deliberations and findings might also cause arguments
and dissension, which the organisation cannot afford.</Blockquote>

<center><b><i><font color="#000099"><font size=+1>Training Principles</font></font></i></B></center>

<p>One of the important tasks for the <i>Department of Propagation &amp;
Information</i> is to prepare material for the training of their members
especially and for all the Muslims generally, with the aim of strengthening
their Beliefs and their adherence to the principals and objectives of the
Jihaad Movements.
<p>In this regard a compulsory course should be devised for the members
of the organisation, from which no one should be exempt. This course should
be taught and instructed with full vigour so that it becomes part and parcel
of the participants' personality. This course can have many facets according
to the different circumstances and times.
<p>The following is a draft of a course, as a guide for those who will
be responsible for devising it:
<blockquote><b>1.</B> <i>Tafseer</i> of <i>Surah Al Anfaal</i> and <i>Surah
Al Braa't</i>.
<p><b>2.</B> Compilation of the 'forty <i>Ahadeeth</i>' with their meanings
and explanations.
<p><b>3.</B> Concise, but <i>complete</i> Islaamic history.
<p><b>4.</B> Compilation of the true events and deeds of the Jihaad of
the honoured <i>Sahaabah</i> <i><font color="#000099">(radhiallaahu 'anhum)</font></i>
and the Pious Predecessors.
<p><b>5.</B> Islaamic theology.
<p><b>6.</B> Compilation of the Revered Sunnah of Allaah's final <i>Rasool<font color="#000099">(sallallaahu
'alayhi wa sallam)</font></i> in every sphere of the Muslim's life. And
the compilation of the prayers of Allaah's final <i>Rasool</i> <i><font color="#000099">(sallallaahu
'alayhi wa sallam)</font></i>.
<p><b>7.</B> Islaamic morality and ethics.
<p><b>8.</B> Atlas of the present day world including the details of all
the Islaamic and the non-Islaamic countries; their boundaries, geography,
population and religions, as well as any further necessary information.
<p><b>9.</B> A brief introduction to the present day Jihaad Movements.
<p><b>10.</B> Introduction to the great Muslim personalities of the recent
past and the present.</Blockquote>

<p><br>For such a course, existing books could be selected, or new books
could be compiled. This course includes all the subjects which are essential
for every rank and file member of the Jihaad Movements.
<p>Apart from this general course, there should be a special course compiled
by the <i>Department of Propagation &amp; Information</i> for the training
centres of the <i>Mujaahideen</i>, for the various Departments, for the
launching camps and for the battlefront. In addition to the compilation
of these courses there should be provision made for the enforcement of
these courses.
<p>These special courses should include such lessons as learning the Holy
Qur'aan by heart, to learning military strategy. The Daily Five Prayers
in congregation, the special night prayers of <i>Tahajjud</i>, the early
morning recital of the Holy Qur'aan, the performance of Dhikr, and physical
training, all ought to be enforced in every office and camp.</td>
